Biologists Discover 'Molecular Fingerprint' of Preeclampsia
Researchers at HSE University employed a new method to model hypoxia in placental cells during pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia and identified molecular markers of tissue hypoxia. Since hypoxia is one of the key mechanisms underlying preeclampsia, these findings are important for a more accurate and timely diagnosis of the disease and for the development of effective treatment methods. The paper has been published in Placenta.

‘Speech, Facial Expressions, and Gestures Cannot Lie
Would you like to know whether a speaker’s trembling voice or an accidental gesture can give them away? At HSE University in Nizhny Novgorod, researchers are developing an algorithm that analyses speech, facial expressions, and gestures, and determines whether information is truthful with 92% accuracy. The project has applications ranging from forensic examination and bank recruitment to fundamental research. Anna Khomenko, head of the research group and Senior Research Fellow at the Centre for Language and Brain at the HSE Faculty of Humanities in Nizhny Novgorod, explains how students and researchers are working together to create a corpus of video recordings, train a classifier, and prepare to introduce computer vision technology.

Cross-Cultural Perspectives on the Role of Empathy during COVID-19’s First Wave

Sustainability. 2021. No. 13. Article 7431.
Butovskaya M., Burkova V., Zinurova R. I.

The COVID-19 pandemic has spread throughout the world, and concerns about psy- chological, social, and economic consequences are growing rapidly. Individuals’ empathy-based reactions towards others may be an important resilience factor in the face of COVID-19. Self-report data from 15,375 participants across 23 countries were collected from May to August 2020 during the early phases of the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, this study examined different facets of empathy—Perspective-Taking, Empathic Concern, and Personal Distress, and their association with cross-cultural ratings on Individualism, Power Distance, The Human Development Index, Social Support Ranking, and the Infectious Disease Vulnerability Index, as well as the currently confirmed number of cases of COVID-19 at the time of data collection. The highest ratings on Perspective-Taking were obtained for USA, Brazil, Italy, Croatia, and Armenia (from maximum to minimum); on Empa- thetic Concern, for the USA, Brazil, Hungary, Italy, and Indonesia; and on Personal Distress, from Brazil, Turkey, Italy, Armenia, Indonesia. Results also present associations between demographic factors and empathy across countries. Limitations and future directions are presented.

We use interfaces to disconnect from the situation around us, from the persistent experience of the outside world, from our neighbors. It is this ability of interfaces to legitimize “absence” that is usually overlooked in their analysis, as the emphasis is on concentration, management, and control. In reality, interfaces are not so much pragmatic and ...

Факторы устойчивой интеграции университетских музеев в образовательный процесс
Rossinskaya A., Борусяк Л. Ф., Киктева К. С. et al., Высшее образование в России 2026 Т. 35 № 7 С. 144–168
Статья посвящена анализу образовательной деятельности университетских музеев России. Актуальность исследования обусловлена противоречием между высоким образовательным потенциалом музеев и фрагментарностью его реализации, а также отсутствием в литературе системного анализа условий интеграции музеев в учебный процесс высшей школы. Несмотря на признание музеев важными центрами сохранения наследия и популяризации науки, вопрос об их реальной включённости в повседневную образовательную жизнь вузов ...

Что такое Свобода? Свобода воли, свободы личности, конституционная модель и законодательное регулирование
Момджян К. Х., Кржевов В. С., Poddiakov A. et al., М.: Новые печатные технологии, 2025.
При всей кажущейся ясности и недвусмысленности понятия «свобода» дать ему исчерпывающую научную дефиницию весьма затруднительно. У каждой отрасли знания свой подход к трактовке этого многоаспектного понятия. В ходе обсуждения, материалы которого вошли в настоящий сборник, свобода рассматривается с позиций философии, социологии, юриспруденции, психологии, нейрофизиологии и т.д. Участники дискуссии рассуждают о границах свободы воли и субъектности человека, о соотношении свободы и ...

Sociological texts on zombies are mostly interested in human problems (capitalism, pop culture, etc), not in zombies as such. Zombies as a specific form of (non) life remain a blindspot for sociologists. Scientists of other disciplines, like epidemiology and neurosciences, have already declared their ways for studying zombies. Our task is to outline the concepts ...

Степанова А. А., Leykina A., Журнал клинического и прикладного психоанализа 2023 Т. IV № 2 С. 84–104
Значительная часть психоаналитических исследований сосредоточена на рассмотрении истерии и нарциссизма как отдельных личностных нарушений. Однако в данной работе проводится анализ, показывающий, что начиная с классических психоаналитических взглядов до современных представлений о данных феноменах возможно выявление точек их пересечения. Обобщены психоаналитические представления о нарциссизме и истерии, их происхождении и видах. Особенное значение уделяется исследованиям французской психоаналитической ...

In 2023–2024 OECD labor markets were generally recovering in terms of employment and unemployment rates after the previous stagnation during the COVID-19 pandemic.

In this article we question the relevance of Geert Hofstede’s opposition of individualism and collectivism in the era of digitalization. The mediatization of labor causes a blurring of the boundaries between the real and the virtual, the reduction of direct interactions leads to familiar affects losing their intensity. We correlate individualism with an affective assemblage ...
